SOME SKAGIT PIONEER FAMILY INFORMATION

HAMILTON

Descendants of William Alexander Hamilton

Generation No. 1
1. WILLIAM ALEXANDER4 HAMILTON (DAVID3, THOMAS2, THOMAS1)
was born Abt. 1833 in Floyd Co., KY, and died Abt. 1923 in Arkansas.
He married (1) HANNAH BALDRIDGE June 18, 1855 in Johnson Co., KY,
daughter of WILLIAM BALDRIDGE and HANNAH ESTEP. He married
(2) LOUISE L. GALLOWAY Abt. 1870. He married (3) UNKNOWN Abt. 1894
in Arkansas.
Notes for WILLIAM ALEXANDER HAMILTON:
The actual age and date of birth of William Alexander Hamilton
is somewhat confusing if one is to believe the ages given in the
various Census Reports where he was found to be listed as well
as his marriage record in Johnson Co., KY.
Marriage 1855 age 19 > b. 1836
Census 1875 age 36 > b. 1839
Census 1885 age 52 > b. 1823 !!
Have not been able to find any records for him in Arkansas to
help with this matter.

=================================
It is UNKNOWN when Hannah Baldridge Hamilton passed away nor where this
event took place. Have not been able to locate where in Indiana the family
moved to during or right after the Civil War. {Perhaps near Connersville,
In as other relations seem to have located there.} {{There were many
Baldridge family members that located to Hamilton, Washington also so it is
possible that there may be a record within that family's genealogy records}}

NOTE 1:
{Esther and Howard Hamilton , son of Ashford Hamilton, traveled to
Topeka, Kansas and did some research on William Hamilton. They put this
information in a letter to Bette (Hamilton), Maurice Hamiltons daughter.
I have a copy of this letter.}
They stated the following:
Genealogy of the Hamilton Family
William Hamilton
Born: 1839/40
Place: Kentucky
Died: 1922/23
William Hamilton was born in the State of Kentucky in the year 1839/40
{My note: if this is true then he was 16 yr when he married Hannah Baldridge}
He was married three times. His first wife was Mae Baldridge.
{Hannah Baldridge} There were four children born to this family; Ira (1857),
John (1859), Mary (1862), Americas (1865)*
William's second marriage was to Louise L. Galloway and to them five children
were born. Ashford (1872), Motz (1875), Alice (1877), William Maurice (1879),
Garfield (1884 ) According to the 1875 Census Records only Ashford and Motz
were born in Hays City, Kansas. Also the Census listed William as a Farmer.
The family came to the State of Kansas from the State of Indiana. The family
moved to a homestead at the site of Hamilton, Washington. It is said that
William "Bill" Hamilton was a promoter. And he later sold the township of
Hamilton, Washington for the sum of $48,000.00
Louise Galloway Hamilton was born in the state of Tennessee in the year 1843/44.
She passed away in the year 1886 from the measles. After the death of Louise,
William left the family in Washington and traveled to Arkansas. There he
married a 15 year old girl by whom he had a third family of five sons which
they named after the presidents of the United States.
The oldest son of Louise and William Hamilton, Ashford , was 15 years old
when his father left for Arkansas. Ashford felt the responsibility of
taking care of his brothers and sister and devoted his early life to this
task. So it was not until he was 36 years old that he married Matilda Cora
Jackson, of Seattle, WA.(**) It was sometime after Ashford and Matilda
had children (***) that he saw his father again. He came to Hamilton, Wa.
on a business trip and to see his children. He then returned to Arkansas
never to be seen again.
After the death of William, 1922/23, an attorney was sent to his son Ashford
where he was asked to sign papers releasing rights of the estate. It was
stated that the widow had very small children and they would receive full
benefit of the property.
End notes:
*The following information was supplied by Ashfords children, Joe Hamilton,
Ruth Hamilton Picker, and Howard Hamilton.
*The dates of birth are estimates as the 1875 Census Records lists only the
names and ages. This is taken from the 1875 Census in Topeka, Kansas - Hays
City-Big Creek Township-Ellis Co.-Kansas-page 11. The records also show
Louise was born in Tennessee although it is thought to be Louisiana.
** Maurice never saw his father after he left them as children but did
correspond with him prior to his father's death. He also handled some
paper work on sales of property for his father according to his daughter,
Bette.
*** On or after 1916

====================================================
It is UNKNOWN when Hannah Baldridge Hamilton passed away nor where
this event took place. Have not been able to locate where in Indiana
the family moved to during or right after the Civil War. {Perhaps

{{There were many Baldridge family members that located to Hamilton,
Washington also so it is possible that there may be a record within
that family's genealogy records}}
Daughter, Americas was born in 1865 KY, so Hannah had to have died after
1865 and before 1870 as Asford was born in KS in 1871 to 2nd wife Louise L.
Galloway. William and family show up in Kansas on 1875 census with new wife
and two children that where born in Kansas. KS census says that they came
from Indiana to Kansas.

Notes: The following references were derived by Carol Ryan, from the book
called,
" A Small Branch From The Baldridge Family Tree,
The Descendents Of William Baldridge of Russell County, Virginia. "
The author is: Clarence E Shepard
2641 Delmonte Ave
Dayton, Ohio 45419.
Carol Ryan wrote:
Hannah Baldridge was the daughter of William Baldridge and Hannah Estep.
William was the first child of William and Mary Baldridge of Russell County,
Virginia. William the son had two wifes and 16 children.
Hannah was the 6th child from his first marriage.
The book says after 1860 and prior to 1870 this family left eastern Kentucky
and they settled in Skagit Co Washington at a place called Hamilton.
From eastern Kentucky records two children are known, Ira and John.
Mary and America may have been born in the other county or state which is
why It doesn't show them in the book.
There are about 50 people with the last name Hamilton in the book.
They are the spouses and children of other members of the Hamilton line that
have married into the family, possibly siblings or cousins.

Please let me introduce myself - I am Bette Hamilton Willson and I believe

re: The Family, cause I've kept a little better track then he has. It is so great

I have a tiny piece of paper - in Papa's writing, that he wrote all his
brother's & sisters, mother, father. I don't have dates but i have scraps of memories,
I loved to have Papa tell me about his childhood. And as I grew older, he told me more.
This may turn out like a story - and you'll have to pick out whats's useful.
First, I'll duplicate the piece of paper:
1/2 brothers & sisters
Ira - Viola, Annabelle, Irene, Mabel + 1 [couldn't remember]
Mary - Harry Craig [child]
John - Albert, Harry, Victoria, Jenny, Eloise, Henry, Edward
Americas - Hettie, Minnie, Lilly, Eunice, Perry, Josephine, Ted
at the top of this part is written, "Mae Baldridge"
and below "Americas" is written "married Brewster"
There was a "Hettie" living in Mt. Vernon that always called Papa, Uncle Maurice.
Perhaps that Hettie, was Americas daughter!
William Hamilton and Louise Galloway.
Grandma Louise was from Louisiana {Papa's memory} and died when Papa was about
6 or 7 years old. He didn't know to much about her. Papa was the baby & I suspect
there was a lot of conflict and trouble. He's never talk much about that, altho
his memory about describing in detail things that happened when he was 4 years old
was excellent. Papa had asthma and remembered it very early. Thru his life it
flaired up under stress, so that's partly what I'm having early conflict on.
Grandpa William must have been a rogue. He was certianly much married.
I don't know the story on the mother of the afore mentioned 1/2 brother's and sister's.
But some 15 or 20 years ago, a man and his sister got in touch with Papa, and they
were from Pennsylvania {I'm not sure - may have ben Indiana or Ohio}. They had
traced William to Washington - he had left their mother or grandmother ( I was
away at the time & the story wasn't clear) in Pennsylvania. And I had always
been told he came from Kentucky. I don't know their ages - so they would have
been quite old if it had been their mother.
When Papa was about 7 - after his mother died, Grandpa William had a
hotel in Hamilton Wash. which was quite a little town {Settlement ?} He sold
the hotel & part of the sales condition was that he wanted to make the trip back
to Kentucky and would be gone a year so the buyers were to board and room the
children until he returned.
When the year was up - they were put out on their own. They all went to
a little house that belonged to their father but had been abandoned.
The rest of the children he wrote down:
Ashford - Joe, Ruth, Howard
Motz - Amanda, Daisy
Alice - married Swafford - Wesley, Minnie, Alonzo
Garfield - 0
Maurice - Ben, David, Paul, Bette, Conrad
Once they were in the house, a young man, gambler by trade, moved in with them to
see that they were alright. He saw to it they went to school & got enough to eat.
Papa remembered being very sick & finally being able to drink canned milk
that young man brought him. And he taught Papa to play any card game, altho when
I knew him, he never gambled & would never bet. He may have as a younger man.
Grandpa William never returned to Wash. - but settled in Oklahoma - where
he started another family. He evidently got in touch with Papam abd thru him,
sold some properties he still owned in Hamilton, WA. They corresponded a bit -
then finally one of his Oklahoma son's sent Papa work he'd died.
Papa was born William Maurice Hamilton June 21, 1879.He died Aug. 12, 1969
My mother was Lula Mae Wolfkill Hamilton. But first he married to Cora Nelson of
Seattle, a schoolteacher. They had Ben, who was killed in an auto accident,
July 4th, 1931. Then David who died about 1965 in Arizona. David had several children
and one son is a police officer in Yuma. Also a daughter lives there and her married
name is Campbell. I think he had four children in all. Someplace I have a letter the
daughter in Yuma wrote to Papa after he passed away. I answered it, but she never replied.
Baby Paul only lived several weeks, and Cora died about the same time of "Childhood Fever".
Papa loved her very much and I think it was a great tragedy for him.
My mother & father were married Sept. 20, 1925. I was born April 12, 1927, and my
brother, Conrad Dell, was born July 9 1933. I have one daughter, Bonnie Jean,
born April 17, 1946 (She has 4 little girls) My brother married Jean Wondrack,
June 12, 1954 and they have three children, Dana Joy, Scott Joseph and Troy John
Hamilton.
My! This has gotten to be quite a letter. I'm sorry I didn't answer
before.
This past year has been rather hectic, and in the past few weeks my daughter
has been quite ill. Had surgery Tuesday & I've been busy ! I work for three eye
physicians, so working plus doing for "my daughter's little family has been a full
time proposition.
I got home a little earlier tonite determined to get this done and off to you.
So please consider that I am kinda tired as I write this.
I remember Uncle Motz, but he died when I was quite small. I have seen Amanda
and Daisy a few times over the years. Also, when Ashford & his wife died in Monroe, WA.
about 15 years ago, I was home and attended their funeral with Papa.
Papa made a tape for the Historical Society and it's in either Bellington or
La Conner, WA. I have never heard it, but will try to locate it. If any of these bits
and peices fit what Uncle Ashford passed along - I'd like to know.
Nice to know we have cousins out there ! Tell me about your family.

MILDRETTA LOUISE ADAMS
Funeral services were conducted Mondaay, Jul 13, at 11AM at the Homedale
Presbyterian Church for Mildretta Louise Adams, 79, of Homedale, who died
Thursday, July 9, in a Caldwell hospital. Officiating was Rev.Pickrell of the

In 1961, Mildretta established and along with her husband, operated the
Old Schoolhouse Museum in Silver City.
She has authored three popular historical books on Owyhee County.
Her books were a labor of love of Owyhee County and areas that where closely
bonded in those early days.
Mildretta spent over six decades exploring the Owyhees on horseback and
has bounced many a mile over backroads, wagon ruts and cow trails on the seat of an
old pickup, long before there were four-wheel drive rigs and BLM maintained
accessways.
In 1950 she accepted the challenge of being census taker for Owyhee County,
seeking out the most remote dwellings over the expansive and desolate territory,
some of which she had to accomplish on horseback.
Intrigued and absorbed in an area rich with one of the most colorful pasts
of any in the state, Mildretta has dedicated all of her spare time to locating
historical sites, digging relics, collecting antiques, hunting indian artifacts
and rock hounding in this country.
She has written many articles on local and county history published over
the years in newspapers covering the general regions.
She is survived by her husband, Walt Adams of Homedale; three daughters
Alene Downing of Homedale, Pat Davis of Bruneau, and Marilyn Burke of Meridian;
